Sports Medicine in Hoffman Estates

“Dr.Mario is my acupuncturist and chiropractor. I have been seeing him for quite some time and can't say enough good things about him. My situation is private but I will say he has helped me more than even he knows . He is very knowledgeable in health and fitness also. I usually tend to only see female Dr.'s but I'm very comfortable talking to Dr.Mario about pretty much anything. He lets me know he is here for anything I need or questions I have. I've become a big advocate for acupuncture, it works miracles. If you are looking for health and rehabilitation, go see Dr. Mario , he is a gem !“

“He was very kind and Pleasant during my initial appointment and was very informative however, his staff is so incompetent. He scheduled me to do a CT scan right away because once we get the results he wanted me to call back to let them know if we can schedule my surgery. (I have already done an MRI and had x-rays he just needed more imagines before surgery... his words).

I have left four voicemails and no one has called me back. his nurse’s voicemail says they’ll call you back in 24 hours however, here I am still waiting to know the findings from my CT scan and when surgery could be scheduled.

4/27/2018 update!!!

After four attempts to schedule my surgery Dr. Patari’s office called to schedule My surgery but I found another doctor. I believe her name was Debbie.... she told me she will let the doctor know Bc I told her I do not trust they will help me with post care if they can not help me schedule this surgery.

Apparently, now she sees the urgency that I need surgery and has called me yet again to ask me to schedule surgery and I again said no because I have another doctor who is seeing me and doing my surgery.

I think she doesn’t want to tell him that she dropped the ball and lost her another one of his patience by not calling them back. ( I have read a few reviews and they are notorious for this)

July update!!

After going to another doctor and getting reviewed by him he referred me back to Dr. Patari. Dr. Patari is the best person to handle wrist surgery in our area.

I have always liked Dr. Patari as I mentioned before but his staff was not up to par. After I went back and let the office know I was not happy with the service they (not Dr. Patari) provided. They were extremely better at handling my paperwork and my appointments. They also apologized.

From that moment on I did not have any issues and they were as pleasant to be around as Dr. Patari was.

My surgery went well and I am very happy with the office for keeping me informed and scheduling my follow up appointments while I was out of with for several weeks. I healed really fast and have been told by many people that the doctor before my surgery did a great job on suturing my wrist up.

I would recommend this office to anyone. As I said Dr. Patari is very nice to deal with, gives you honest/helpful feedback and cares about his patients!“

“Where do I start? Dr. Calonje made my entire first pregnancy a breeze. Not only is his bedside manner UNBEATABLE but he truly cares about his patients and their well being. His staff is incredible as well. I've never had, and probably won't ever have again a doctor that made me feel so comfortable. Only negative thing is that he doesn't deliver babies anymore so I won't be able to come back to him in the future. but if I could- I'd come back every time. Best of luck in your adventure!“
